Even More NEW FALL Styles Added to MakingitBig.com

Now that our second Fall Catalog has begun showing up in homes around the world, we thought we'd share the unique new styles that we just added to our already extensive Fall 2009 Collection!

The Mosaics Blouse: This breathtaking collage of hand-batiked blues, purples and black features an exquisite design that starts with a flattering asymmetrical hemline, moves to button detail in the back, and finishes with a flourishing V-neck mandarin collar, angled pocket and 3/4 sleeves trimmed in black. Fashioned using 100% Rayon.

The Sonata Jacket: Whether you're in the office or out on the town, this jacket adds flair to your ensemble. Marbled blue-gray batik, black geometric shapes and batik rice print trim highlight long sleeves, a frog-button closure and 7" side slits. 100% Rayon.

The Sonata Top: Simplicity can be deceiving. A hand-batiked blue-gray rice print over a field of black gives this V-neck shell with bracelet length sleeves more than a touch of class. Coordinates perfectly with the Sonata Jacket, above, and our Venus Pants. Made of 100% Rayon.

The Graffiti Zip Jacket: Create a splash all year long thanks to the red graffiti print collar and cuff trim that adorns our new cotton knit jacket. With a zip front and front pouch pockets, you'll stay toasty on cool autumn days. 100% cotton.

The Graffiti Tee: The zigzag detail on one side of the neckline gives this frolicsome graffiti print tee an extra kick. The center V-notch neckline and 3/4 length sleeves add bright notes to an already stunning style. Coordinates perfectly with the Graffiti Jacket above. 100% cotton.

The Costa Mesa Pullover: We've tamed a bold print with a subtle palette of teal, mauve, blush and black in an easy fit top that will surely become a favorite! Purl stitching adds appealing detail to the V-neckline, 3/4 sleeves, hemline and center front and back seams. 100% polyester.

The Paisley Shirt: Add a touch of whimsy to your new Fall wardrobe with this over dyed paisley and floral print. The soft stretch poplin is so comfy that you'll want one in each of the 3 colors offered (allure, cognac and arctic). Features include a button front, collar, side slits and 3/4 sleeves with slits. Cotton/Spandex.

Also new for Fall: The Annabella Shirt, Annabella Top, Annabella Pants, The Perfect Quilted Jacket (almost Sold-Out...get your size while supplies still last!) and the Alice Blouse.

In addition, we're also offering some lovely, Fall-inspired Accessories this season: Chivalry Earrings, Vegan Mary Janes (sooo cute!), Falling Vine Scarf, Seattle Ankle Boot (currently all the rage!), Deirdra Loafers (super comfy!), Impressions Silk Scarf (with this season's most flattering colors), Birki's Maria Clogs (cute and comfy!), Grandeur Necklace (coordinates with our Chivalry Earrings), Autumn Blossom Scarf (matches our new Autumn Blossom Shirt perfectly!), luscious Pashmina-Style Scarves (in red wine, black or winter white) and our new Navarro Silk Scarf (with deep Fall colors).

Live Life Beautifully. Live Life with Style!



Welcome to our new MiB Community Blog!

Even though the leaves haven't begun to put on their beautiful Fall colors of russet and gold...it's Fall at MiB!

We've just introduced our new Fall 2009 Collection and it's available on our website now.

Our Plus Size model, Tesia, shown on the left, is wearing our new Arabella Top in one of our new Fall colors, "camel".

We've created a luscious Fall color palette this year...camel, rust, eggplant, deep teal, muted dusty rose and dusty blue, rich burgundy, warm brown, true red, peacock blue and soft thistle.

Many of our fashions mix and match perfectly and can also be added in to your existing MiB Collections, the Venus Collection and Divine Collection, for example.

This season we've added many new cozy Fall sweaters, jackets and coats as well as some beautiful scarves and jaunty hats to complete your new look for Fall.

One of our most popular categories is our special, super comfortable and durable MiB Undies and Lingerie. These are truly comfortable and our MiB customers continue to rave about them, season after season!

We invite you to stop by our Retail Showroom in Cotati, California, Monday through Friday, or shop conveniently from the comfort of your own home via our website or mail order catalog.
